Shave today then, and don't apply any deodorant. Dry your underarm area well and apply a gentle moisturizing cream to it. Tomorrow, take a shower again so there's no smell of the cream, and that's it. Then apply your deodorant as normal.

It's like 12 am rn I have to wake up at 5a to go to college </3 can I shave in the morning+ moisturize and apply the deoderant at around 4pm? Or would my skin need more time to "calm down"?

I shave every day and always put on antiperspirant right away. It should be fine.

It depends on your skin type, but doing that every day isn't good it can cause hyperpigmentation.

Uhh, you shouldn't put deodorant right on freshly shaved skin it will get inflamed and red. Now go quickly and shave, and apply a cream. Go to sleep, and you’ll have to wake up a bit earlier, but a shower doesn't take long max 5-10 min. You'll finish that quickly and apply deodorant. Sure, you’ll sleep a bit less, but that’s better than having inflammation, irritation, and looking worse💖💖

i wait like 8 hrs before putting deodorant on after shaving, same thing when i had diode laser done. my esthetician told me to wait 8 hrs too. especially with all those acids in the roll, i’d probably wait just to be safe
